“God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken unto us by His Son, whom He hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; who being the brightness of His glory, and the express image of His person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by Himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high” — Hebrews 1:1-3.
HAVE you ever wished you understood God better? Have you wondered just how He viewed many things that you are faced with in this scene of testing? Then all you need to do is to get better acquainted with the Lord Jesus, for in Him God is perfectly told out. He is the effulgence of His glory; the exact expression of His character. So He could say, “He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father.” He is God’s last word to man. In times past His revelations were fragmentary through inspired prophets. Now He has come out to us in the Person of His Son, His Heir and the Creator of the Ages. This One has made purification for sins, and He has taken His place as Man on the Father’s right hand. In Him we see God.
“Lamb of God, our souls adore Thee,
While upon Thy face we gaze!
There the Father’s love and glory
Shine in all their brightest rays.
Thy almighty pow’r and wisdom
All creation’s works proclaim,
Heaven and earth alike confess Thee,
As the ever-great I AM.
Lamb of God, Thou now art seated
High upon Thy Father’s throne,
All Thy gracious work completed,
All Thy mighty vict’ry won.
Ev’ry knee in heaven is bending
To the Lamb for sinners slain;
Ev’ry voice and heart is swelling,
‘Worthy is the Lamb to reign.’”
―J. G. Deck.
